Cans of self-cooling

That's the idea that the Miller brewery has announced and conducted research a few years ago. However, to date there has been another carrier in the early, more effective.

Joseph International Company acquired the patented West Coast Chill . Users only need to press a button on the cans, the liquid temperature inside will quickly lower.

In 1998, Pepsi Cola also studied self-cooling cans. But the old-fashioned cans will emit HFC 134A, which is a greenhouse gas pollutant. This time the harmful substances have been eliminated, instead activated carbon is derived from renewable organic plant materials and carbon dioxide is recycled from the atmosphere.

The operating mechanism of this can not be announced, only that the cooling process does not require external energy sources and is harmless to the environment. The self-cooling cans have nothing to do with the kind of microchips that Miller has planned to use for their beer cans.

Expected West Coast Chill chillers will be available at stores in South California and Las Vegas in April this year for $ 2.95. Josseoh also notes that this cans can be recycled as conventional cans.
